Haven't just bought it, but my Airsoft Peak order arrived.

Got an Element KX3 for my Classic Army MP5, only to discover the barrel must be clockwise threaded, because it doesn't seem to want to go on. I also bought a retention lanyard in anticipation of buying a WE Glock, yet I have since changed my mind upon finding TaiwanGun are selling JG BAR-10s at a similar price.

The other three items are from Airsoft Peak's mystery box / surprise package / lucky thing but unfortunately it was all sh*t as expected. They say they include top selling items but most of them aren't very good anyway. I'm a bit disappointed but not by much -since it was about $6 and worth a try to see if I got owt good- although that's £4-ish nonetheless and I'm not going to use any of it.

I'll throw the dodgy rhino patch in for free with the next thing I sell on here if anybody wants it.

new toy! TRI AN/PRC152 radio, emerson dummy on the left, functional TRI on the right:

Ordered it last week, shipped on the 17th, in my hands this morning. Airsoft Peak + DHL really did the business, only £13 customs too (no bloody parcelfarce handling fee!). EMS speedpost can chew me from now on, the extra $20-25 for UPS/DHL make all the difference.

My Evike order has cleared customs and I haven't had to pay a handling fee! First time for everything eh?! Other than that I picked up a Peli 1450 case off eBay for £2!! And a Surefire G2 for £26. So in all its looking pretty good!

Went for something that isn't crappy conscript gear based on 40 year old soviet standards. Total spend of around 620 UAH,which is 38 euro/30 pounds.

Quality on this stuff is really good,stitching and threads are strong and the material is tough. it feels far better than the sh*tty Russian & Ukrainian stuff I've been using up until now.

Austrian Surplus M65 cut Field Jacket, 18 euro/14 pounds. Only damage is a tiny hole at the front,over the velcro, thankfully sewn up. Patches/Insignia have been removed too. Didn't come with a fleece liner but I already have a decent fleece so it's no big loss.

Austrian M65 cut Combat trousers to match,10 euro/8 pounds. Seems to be a factory defect since one pocket was not completely finished but that's a simple fix,otherwise look to be brand new.

Ukrainian made(Supposedly) fingerless leather gloves 10euro/8 pounds. These are popular with ukrainian soldiers and a common sight,at least with Internal troops and border guards around where I'm about. Stitching quality is great and they are super comfortable. Probably my favorite purchae since it's the first time I've bought gloves that genuinely feel great.

Decided against a gorka suit because the quality was mediocre and it was expensive,at 1200UAH. I prefer the looks of M65 stuff anyway.
